Since then, Gerardo has performed in virtually every genre and every country, collaborating with artists like David Bowie, Sir Elton John, Nile Rodgers, Duran Duran, Slash, Marc Anthony and everyone from Stevie Wonder to Jessica Simpson. He’s been nominated for 7 Grammy’s. He’s romped through the charts of Billboard.
